Pro Era

About Pro Era

Pro Era stands for Progressive Era.
We live in the Common Era, so naming the group “Pro Era” is symbolic of the group helping to bring forth a new era, a new age, with their conscious music.

Quote from the collective’s website theproera.com:

“PRO ERA is an American hip hop based collective originating from Brooklyn, NY. The group was founded and named by Capital STEEZ in 2011. Inspired by the “Progressive Era” time period in the 1900’s, the group based their focus on progressing and growing in everyday life through their music. Pro Era members include original founder Capital STEEZ (RIP), co-founders Powers Pleasant and frontman Joey Bada$$, CJ Fly, Dirty Sanchez (47), Dyemond Lewis, Kirk Knight, A La Sole, Nyck Caution, Dessy Hinds, T’nah Apex, SwankMaster Raw, Rokamouth, Jab (47), JakkTheRhymer, and producers Chuck Strangers, Bruce Leekix and Hans Solo. The collective also consists of non musical members who are talented in other areas of creative arts such as graphic design, clothing designing, comedy, and visual art.

From touring across the country, 96 million plus views on YouTube, and 89 million plus plays on Soundcloud, the young collective is just getting started but has already left a heavy imprint on the game.
